I'm at a point where I can buy things I want and not sweat it if I could have saved $50 by waiting for something I want for a year or more. I got the Wii U on day one (first time ever I got a console on day one) and have had a blast with it ever since. Only little twinge of regret is that I couldn't justify getting the Zelda bundle with the sweet game pad. So, it's a trade-off: 9 months of gaming awesomeness traded in for a slightly cooler gamepad? Not worth it for me.

If the Wii U fullfills it's potential and the next system looks to be good, I have no problems going day one again. That said, coming off back to back Nintendo generations I would probably look to chance it up a little bit if MS or Sony can manage to put together something a little more appealing than they have been.
